Even the words he spoke trembled slightly.
Su Wanyan appeared so calm that he thought she didn't know anything.
For a moment, he really thought Su Wanyan was going to die.
He couldn't imagine what would happen after Su Wanyan died... He...
Yu Nanqing clenched her fists slightly, and her whole body trembled slightly again.
He suddenly became curious: "Wanyan..."
"Hmm?" For the first time ever, Su Wanyan didn't push him away.
"Aren't you... scared?"
Why was she able to remain so calm in the face of death?
"Well, how should I put it?" Su Wanyan recalled the situation just now: "Just now... I knew very well that I couldn't escape, and I was inexplicably calm. Now that I think about it, I was actually still scared."
And it will also implicate Xiaobu.
Su Wanyan pushed Yu Nanqing away, frowning: "That's enough, why are you in such a hurry? The later we go back, the worse it will be for us, don't you know?"
"I can't walk."
"..."
Yu Nanqing, who had been pushed away, leaned against Su Wanyan again: "I really can't walk anymore."
His legs were really weak.
I was so panicked that my heart was pounding and I couldn't calm it down no matter what I did.
"What do we do then?" Su Wanyan looked speechlessly at the guards who were already on guard all around. "Are we just going to sit here and obediently wait to die?"
After thinking about it, she felt she had lost out.
Having barely escaped death, are they just going to sit here and wait for Emperor Yuanhe's men to come and reap the benefits?
She pushed Yu Nanqing away and stood up abruptly, reaching out to pull him up: "Get up! Let's go! You said you wouldn't let me lose! If the army surrounds us, we really won't have any chance at all. We're still far from the camp!"
Although she had already died once, she wouldn't have been unable to accept dying without pain in the past, but now that she had been here for more than half a year, she couldn't bear to leave.
During festivals, the city offers a variety of events, such as lantern festivals, boat tours, flower goddess worship ceremonies, temple fairs, and more, which are both lively and entertaining.
She also couldn't bear to part with the system. It was such a powerful system, and she hadn't even saved many people before she died. What a pity!
She also wanted to see the stars and sunset, the mountains, rivers and lakes, and she wanted to experience what it meant to be a warrior on horseback in the vast desert.
This body is only fourteen years old, the prime of life!
If she stays here, she will have many, many more years to go. More importantly, she has begun to develop feelings for the things around her!
If she really died like this, she would be heartbroken.
Upon seeing this, Yu Nanqing's lips suddenly curled up slightly. He slowly stood up following Su Wanyan's strength, grabbed her wrist with his other hand, and gently lifted it.
Su Wanyan let out a soft "Ah—"
In the blink of an eye, she fell into his arms again.
"Are you addicted to hugging me?" Su Wanyan frowned. "Am I not going to walk anymore after being attacked once?"
"That'll be faster." With that, he lightly touched the ground with his toes, and in the blink of an eye, a gentle breeze whistled through the air.
Su Wanyan felt a cool sensation on her face. The dark forest made it impossible for her to see anything, and the chilly wind was blowing into her eyes, causing her to squint.
For the first time, she gripped Yu Nanqing's collar tightly, her face full of dissatisfaction as she closed her eyes: "You...you...why didn't you say so earlier! I wasn't prepared at all!"
Feeling that the little one in his arms was truly frightened, Yu Nanqing tightened his grip on her and even slowed down.
Su Wanyan noticed again: "What are you doing! I was just saying it, I'm not blaming you, hurry up and stop dawdling."
"..."
Suddenly, a whooshing sound pierced the night sky.
Yu Nanqing's eyes suddenly darkened, and he leaned back from his forward-moving posture. With a loud "thud," a large tree next to him was pierced through by the siege arrow!
"Your Highness!" Xiao Bu and Tian Zhong caught up in the blink of an eye, drawing their swords to protect Yu Nanqing on either side: "There are still ambushes in the woods."
It's normal for there to be an ambush.
The entire hunting grounds are now occupied by Emperor Yuanhe's people.
Yu Nanqing felt the murderous aura coming from all directions, his gloomy eyes filled with a deathly aura.
After only a brief pause, Yu Nanqing continued to use his lightness skill to hurry towards the camp.
Kobu followed closely behind Tanaka.
However.
Even though they used their fastest speed, they were still a step too late.
The hunting grounds have been cordoned off.
Even though they were still quite a distance from the camp, Su Wanyan saw the army already carrying torches and had entered the woods, searching for their tracks inch by inch.
"How much dust do we have left?" Su Wanyan asked.
After the assassination attempt in the capital, Yu Nanqing asked Xiao Bu and the others for details. After learning that the dust could cause an explosion when it reached a certain concentration, Yu Nanqing asked Su Wanyan about this issue.
According to Yi Suwanyan, besides flour, there are many other types of dust that can cause an explosion.
Wood chips, dyes, sulfur powder, or even tea powder, as long as they are dense enough, can cause a flashover.
However, if this method is to be used in a hunting ground, a large quantity is required because it is not a closed space, and it is difficult to maintain the density.
The dust, originally intended for use against the army, was used up by Yu Nanqing ahead of time, so what's left now is probably not enough.
Xiao Bu hesitated, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid the rest..."
"It's alright." Yu Nanqing gently put Su Wanyan down and said in a deep voice, "This place is not far from the camp. I will fight my way out. You take the princess and follow behind me."
"yes!"
Su Wanyan's expression tightened slightly: "This...is this going to work? There are so many of them!"
"Your Highness, rest assured," Xiao Bu hurriedly said. "When His Highness was on the frontier, he fought against the enemy's thousands of troops for ten days and ten nights at a time. This mere small troop is not enough to entertain His Highness!"
Besides, all they need to do today is break through the encirclement.
"..." So they were so comfortable letting Yu Nanqing clear the way?
Su Wanyan felt there might be other ways.
He opened his mouth as if to speak, but his eyes were suddenly covered.
Yu Nanqing covered her eyes with a strap, leaving Su Wanyan completely bewildered: "What's going on now?"
She reached out to pull off the straps.
But Yu Nanqing grabbed her wrist: "I'm afraid I'll scare you."
"..." What the heck?
"Your Highness, please do as the Prince says," Xiao Bu immediately advised.
After all, swords have no eyes; if the prince draws his sword, the lightest consequence is decapitation.
That scene was not suitable for a delicate woman like the Empress to watch.
"Yi yi yi, I yi yi, I yi yi." It turns out she's the only burden in the whole team.
“But I can’t see right now!” Su Wanyan reached out her hand blankly.
Xiao Bu said, "Your Majesty, I apologize."
In the blink of an eye, he had her on his back.
“Wanyan…” Yu Nanqing suddenly spoke.
Immediately afterwards, Su Wanyan felt a large hand cover the back of her head, tilting her slightly forward, and her forehead pressed against Yu Nanqing's forehead.
A low, gentle voice reached my ears: "I regret it so much..."
